Coach Hand-Watson vs Former Athlete
31 years ago, Coach Kim Hand-Watson had the opportunity to coach a talented athlete in Shella Graves from Motley County. Fast forward to this past Friday night and Shella Graves Arnwine sets her lineup to prepare the Roscoe Plowgirls to take on her former Coach in the Area Playoff game held in Post, TX. Shella’s dad was Coach Hand-Watson’s first AD at Motley County. Coach had Shella in 6th and 7th grade and she moved to Roby her freshman year but was well on her way to a successful athletic career, and now into a successful coaching career! Coach Arnwine’s Plowgirls fought to the bitter end, but our Lady Roughettes proved to be too much! Our Roughettes had a comfortable lead for most of the game, but Coach Arnwine fought tooth and nail to throw everything possible at her former coach! However, the relentless work ethic, drive, attitude and defense allowed the Roughettes to finish the game strong and come out victorious as Area Champions! Coach Hand-Watson enjoyed coaching Shella as an athlete, and was grateful to have the opportunity to coach against her former athlete!
Our Roughettes get the W, as we continue our Gold Ball Chasin’ streak alive! We encourage our community to come out to Brownfield on Tuesday night as we take on the Ropes Lady Eagles for Round 3 of the playoffs, as well as a Round 3 matchup after having split games with them in District play!

Elementary celebrated the end of the six weeks with the Character Counts assembly. Students performed a skit about courage, and Terri Morris, RN came to talk about the Covenant School of Nursing and the profession. It was a fun morning!





Today, the Roughneck Band sent 7 small ensembles, comprised of 28 band students, to Abernathy for the UIL Solo/Ensemble Contest. These students brought home 31 medals, and all 7 ensembles (28 students) qualified for the Texas State Solo/Ensemble Contest in Pflugerville.
Needless to say, we are SUPER proud of these Roughneck Band members! A big thanks to Mrs. Blount and Mr. Bibb for working with these groups to prepare for them for this event. Outstanding effort all around!
When you see these kids next week, pat them on the back for a job well done!
